LeBron James

Although LeBron James is on a serious hunt for his first NBA Championship, the seven-time NBA All-Star continues to handle business and amplify his brand off of the court. In detail, LeBron James is set open a retail store in Miami titled UNKNWN (the word “unknown” without the “o”). This modern, luxury concept store is expected to open its doors in the fall of 2011 and will carry brands such as OriginalFake, A.P.C. and Nike Tier Zero. Stay tuned for additional information regarding this new retail space. Until then, check out the newly surfaced Unknwn website.

Jordan 6 Rings "Carbon Fiber"

The Jordan “6 Rings” model continues to one of the most popular hybrid Jordan Brand models on the market. This Air Jordan 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14 mash-up incorporates elements from each signature shoe including the huarache inner sock, fuzzy tongue logo, velcro strap, “TWO 3″ branding, panther paw outsole and much more.

Today, a new colorway has been spotted that is sure to turn a few heads. The colorway features a predominately black mesh upper highlighted with a carbon fiber-like mudguard. White and grey accents on the midsole and heel cup finish the pair off and match perfectly with the lone metal lace-eyelet. Look for this pair to release in the near future at most Jordan Brand retailers.

Can You Dig It? A Tribute to Shaq Diesel

Yesterday the one and only Shaquille O'Neal announced his retirement via Twitter. The larger than life icon did so in a nonchalant manner, but the man of many quotables has a career that speaks for itself. Having played with the likes of Penny, Kobe, Nash, Wade, and LeBron, Shaq has always been in a league of his own. Though slowed by toe injuries and taco neck syndrome, Shaq has done it all on and off the court with a smile on his face. Today we celebrate the career of the league's most charismatic star by retracing his footprints.
